Starlark needs metering so you can do fair polling when embedded in an application, then resume the paused processes.



Polling for events sounds like the polar opposite of hermetic execution.


It sounds like OP just wants the ability to suspend and resume Starlark execution. To first approximation they can just send SIGSTOP and SIGCONT signals to it, but they are probably asking for a more integrated way.
